CURRY CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CHICKPEAS AND SPINACH



Curry Chicken Breasts With Chickpeas and Spinach image

This entire dish is built for flavor - and ease. An ideal ingredient for quick weeknight meals, chicken breasts can be pounded thin, so they'll cook quickly and evenly. Here, the cutlets are dusted in flour to create a delicate, golden crust that seals in moisture, and flavored with Madras curry powder, an Indian spice blend featuring coriander, turmeric, chiles, cumin, fennel, garlic and ginger. Toasting it in oil brings out all its warmth and richness. The curried chickpeas make a wonderful side dish on their own, and would pair just as well with another meat or fish.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded 1/2-inch thick
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/4 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons Madras curry powder
1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, plus wedges for serving
4 ounces baby spinach (about 4 packed cups)
Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Steps:

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 plum tomatoes, chopped
2 large shallots, halved
1 2-inch piece ginger, peeled
1/2 to 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded
1 teaspoon curry powder
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 15-ounce cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (skin removed)

Add the tomato mixture and cook, stirring often, until darkened and paste-like, 10 to 12 minutes (add water as needed if the mixture is sticking).

Tips:

  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in yogurt, ginger, garlic, and spices helps tenderize the chicken and infuses it with flavor.
  • Use a variety of spices: This recipe uses a blend of spices, including cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili powder. Experiment with different spices to create your own unique flavor profile.
  • Cook the chicken until it is tender: Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through but still juicy.
  • Use canned chickpeas: Canned chickpeas are a convenient and affordable way to add protein and fiber to the curry. You can also use dried chickpeas, but you will need to soak them overnight before cooking.
  • Garnish the curry with fresh cilantro: Cilantro adds a fresh, citrusy flavor to the curry. You can also garnish the curry with other herbs, such as mint or basil.

Conclusion:

This chicken curry with chickpeas is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The curry is flavorful and satisfying, and the chickpeas add protein and fiber. Serve the curry with rice or naan bread for a complete meal.
